CAPLESS WONDERS

Last week, we talked about costly players who never turned out for the country, discussing the likes of Dean Richards and Kevin Davies. But it seems we missed a couple. As Adam Leary pointed out, Newcastle's ?7m signing Carl Cort never made it onto any England teamsheets - not that that stopped Wolves forking out ?2m for him a couple of years later.

And Mohson Khan thumbs former Coventry City trainee Chris Kirkland, who cost Liverpool ?6m back in 2001. Bit more likely to work his way in than Carl Cort though, eh?
